Bachelor in Physics

Bachelor Degree
180 ECTS
Free access with self-assessment test
Three years length
Via della Ricerca Scientifica, 1 00133 Roma
Language: Italian

Graduates of the Bachelor in Physics will carry out professional activities in the fields of technological applications of Physics at an industrial level (e.g. electronics, optics, IT, mechanics, acoustics, etc.), laboratory activities and related services, in particular, to radiation protection, environmental control and safety, the development and characterization of materials, telecommunications, remote controls of satellite systems and participation in the activities of public and private research bodies, and in all areas, even if not scientific (e.g. economics, finance, security), where the ability to analyze and model even complex phenomena with scientific methodology is required.

The course is structured in two different curricula:

  • Fisica
  • Fisica dell'Atmosfera e del Clima e Meteorologia

Both curricula provides activities aimed at acquiring basic and fundamental knowledge:

  1. a basic knowledge of algebra, geometry, differential and integral calculus;
  2. fundamental knowledge of classical physics, theoretical physics and quantum physics and their mathematical bases;
  3. chemistry elements;
  4. aspects of modern physics, relating for example to nuclear and subnuclear physics, the structure of matter and astronomy and astrophysics;

among the training activities in the various disciplinary sectors, they provide laboratory activities for a suitable number of credits, in particular dedicated to the knowledge of experimental methods, measurement and data processing; they can provide, in relation to specific objectives, external activities, such as training placements in companies, public administration structures and laboratories, as well as study stays at other Italian and foreign universities, also in the framework of international agreements.

After a three-year degree, you can:

  1. enter the world of work
  2. enroll in the Master's degree

The course prepares the profession of Physical Technicians (ISTAT code 3.1.1.1).

You will also have access to technical professions in government organizations or private sectors (banking, insurance companies, services) at intermediate decision-making levels: Employment in the industry as technical assistants for example in sectors such as electronics, software / computing, telecommunications, materials.
